[digikam] [Bug 363937] New: Add option to disable thumbnails in Import window

            Bug ID: 363937
           Summary: Add option to disable thumbnails in Import window
           Product: digikam
           Version: 5.0.0
          Platform: Gentoo Packages
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: Import
          Assignee: [hidden email]
          Reporter: [hidden email]

Using today's git head, 7fb769c27cf48408cf45cad65ba4330940663c05.

Generating thumbnails takes a long time and makes the Import window
unresponsive. Many users don't need to see thumbs in the Import window. For
many users the more important thing is being able to quickly import our photos
from a memory card or via USB into digiKam.
Please add an option to disable thumbnails in the Import window.

As an example, I have just 223 raw images on my SD card, but the import window
was unresponsive for so long I closed it (with great difficulty), re-opened it,
still unresponsive, restarted digiKam, opened the Import window again, still
unresponsive. I let it sit there for a minute before it became responsive. I
guess thumbnail generation is to blame. This was a waste of time, I just want
to "download all".

Reproducible: Always

I think the loading of thumbnails is not the problem. This goes very fast here.
Do you have the option "Use file metadata (makes connection slower)" in the
camera setup activated?

Do you use a Gphoto2 or an UMS camera ?

No to both gphoto and to UMS. I used a class 10 SD card.
By the way, when digiKam hang earlier today with those 223 photos I made sure
there was "no active process".

I imported another batch of photos and now it took perhaps a second or two to
populate all the thumbs that fit into the whole maximized window - fast! I
didn't change anything in settings.

Since showing thumbs really is fast, we can close this issue. But please advise
me what to check the next time digiKam becomes unresponsive for a long time
when I open the Import window.
